Meaningful bottle of wine. This was a gift to me from the 70th anniversary of D-Day. I’d like to thank the French Foreign Legion for making the wine. I enjoyed airdropping the French Foreign Legion and the 101 Airborne Devision from the U.S. on the 70th anniversary of D-Day. We are 75 years out now and I would love to commemorate the brave souls that took part on the D-Day invasion. God Bless you all. You are true heroes. 75 years out I commend the greatest generation. — 7 years ago
Nice crisp, dry white (Gavi) at Gusto 101 in Toronto — 8 years ago
Very hot on the nose. cinnamon and caramel. Cut with a few drops of water and richness comes through. Amazingly long finish. Top notch. — 9 years ago
Unbelievably delicious. Leave it to KM to make you go crazy for a Nouveau. Crazy strawberry and banana on the nose. Touch of cranberry. Beautifully floral and fresh. Nice acid and a "hint" or tannins making it perfect for food and not just sipping. I "aged" it for about 4 months since I forgot I bought it. That's old for Nouveau right? Ha — 9 years ago

Bottling n. 101.
The bottle looks fantastic and the liquid inside was extremely special too. I am not sure what it is the process for these wines; is it a vintage port or a tawny? I remember something about this wine being vintaged until 1947(?). Very good stuff though, anytime you see this bottle shape just grab it, you won't regret ✌️ — 9 years ago
I'm not sure the world of fine beverages is ready for this but this is one of the most interesting culinary creations I have come across this year. This is absolutely a 'have this with food' drink. So refreshing. Such good value and culinary creativity on display. — 10 years ago

Good, stable, entry level Pinot from an amazing winery.
This is like a Pinot 101. A good beginners look into what a classic Oregon Pinot tastes like at this price point. Pom and cherry nose, a waft of a twig and branch. Blackberry compote, hints of warm pie. Takes an hour of air to see more fruit, tangerine acids, low tannin.

Vintage2015 / what a seductive smell... even so young... most merlot, cabernet sauvignon... clay and limestone soil... 50 km away north of the city of Bordeaux. Pierre Ardoin is an oenologist at the University. Seductive red fruits in smell. An impression of plums. Vibrant and velvety taste. No need to cellar 😉 when the wine is so good at the moment. #blaye #bordeaux Tasted with a pasta porcini. Good combination. — 7 years ago

One of my go to's and standbys. I catch spice with hint of vanilla, and love to add one drop of vanilla bean scrapping, and ½ tsp honey, served neat or on large cube — 9 years ago
Gravelly rocky vyard with old scrub waist-high vines. Benito Dusi Ranch farmed by Benito since 1940s (older brother Dante owned vyard twice as big and half as old.... Turley/four vines/J.Dusi origins). Oldest vines in Paso. First winery to put "PasoRobles" on a wine label est 1969 (not officially AVA until ten years later in the 80s) so keep it as appellation for historical purposes even though it's a single vineyard. 3 miles south of 101. 25acres/92-years old planted in 1922. Head trained, 2.6t/a. Purple floral nose; Dark, brooding, black fruit, molasses, tar, and barrel spice on the palate. Robust well knit tannin. — 10 years ago
